Segregation Academies Get Million in Tax Dollars

Tuesday, November 19, 2024

Private schools across the South that were established for white children during desegregation are now benefiting from tens of millions in taxpayer dollars flowing from rapidly expanding voucher-style programs, a ProPublica analysis found. In North Carolina alone, we identified 39 of these likely "segregation academies" that are still operating and that have received voucher money.

I looked at the website of the school shown and there were people of color. How can that be?

The South and Red States make me sick.
Outside of Nashville and maybe New Orleans,
I doubt the 'South' will ever see another
dollar of my money spent there (willingly).
The Confederacy's ------- are hard, I bet,
with the re-failed rise (yet again) of that
pale-colored dinosaur.

Public paid for Universities have "black only spaces".

Every black facebook group always talking about "We need our own spaces" and "we should have black only universities" and other type B.S.

The South and Red States make me sick.

Good. If you dont live in one of them, very good. Dont move here. If you do live here, please leave, you are the problem anyway.

Who do you think Republicans expect to do the work of the immigrants they're planning on deporting?

Boaz, the majority of Black Americans voted for Harris.

Boaz, the more you post about Black people, the more I doubt you know any.

LOL I am not sure what all the hub bub is about, $1Million dollars is less than Hunter pulled in from the Chinese.

Also Nancy Pelosi's niece gets paid $181,648.00 to be the "Climate Advisor" at HUD.

The US Government is full of grift.

Way down south in the land of Tom Cotton
Old times there are not forgotten,
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land.
In Dixie Land where he was born in, early on a frosty mornin',
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land.

Then I wish I was in Dixie, hooray! hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand to live and die in Dixie,
Away, away, away down South in Dixie,
Away, away, away down South in Dixie.

'
alt Yankee Dixie by T. E. Ford

Away down South in the land of traitors, rattlesnakes and alligators
Right away! Come away! Right away! Right away, comeaway!
Where cotton's king and men are chattels
Union boys will win the battles
Right away! Come away! Right away, come away!

We'll all go down to Dixie, away, away!
Each Dixie boy must understand that he must mind his Uncle Sam
Away! Away! We'll all go down to Dixie!
Away! Away! We'll all go down to Dixie!

I wish I was in Baltimore, I'd make secession traitors roar
Right away! Come away! Right away! Come away! Right away, come away!
We'll put the traitors all to route, I'll bet my boots we'll whip 'em out
Right away! Come away! Right away, come away!

We'll all go down to Dixie, away, away!
Each Dixie boy must understand that he must mind his Uncle Sam
Away! Away! We'll all go down to Dixie!
Away! Away! We'll all go down to Dixie!

So, after segregated safe spaces being celebrated and encouraged by the left we are now against segrated spaces again?

It's hard to keep up with the ever shifting values of the left.
